In an unprecedented turn of events, French leftists have emerged as the leading force in the latest legislative elections, catching pollsters, politicians, and the public off guard. This result, described as perhaps the biggest surprise in the history of French elections, threatens to plunge the country into political turmoil due to the lack of a clear majority. The outcome puts President Macron in a precarious position, with uncertainty looming over who might partner with him to form a government. This political shake-up has significant implications not only for France, a key pillar of the European Union and its second-largest economy, but also for international concerns such as the ongoing war in Ukraine. As France grapples with the results, the world watches closely to see how this unexpected shift will affect both domestic and global politics.
